American swimmer Michael Phelps became the most decorated athlete in Olympic history Tuesday, while the United States and China remained tied atop the overall medal count of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Here’s a recap of the day’s Olympic action:
July 31, 2012 This is probably the weirdest Olympics related thing I've come across so far. You can go to the BBC website and enter your height/weight, and they'll find the Olympic athlete who most closely matches your numbers. My results were less mortifying than I thought! (Still not sharin
The US swim team captured two gold medals at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London on Monday, while the US men’s gymnastics squad disappointed. Here’s what happened at the London Games:
Ah, Ryan Lochte’s grill… that shining beacon of American freedom. The Olympic swimmer is turning heads for his uniquely bling-tastic mouthwear. According to a recent interview, Ryan’s grill — which is a retainer filled with diamonds — is the swimmer’s “unique way of showing personality.” We all know it has the power to inspire millions, but we wondered –- what else can it do?
July 30, 2012 This video is all kinds of awkward. Aly Raisman is competing with the US gymnastics team at the Olympics, and her parents seem like they're really, um, invested. (Maybe a little too invested?) Either way, I imagine this is what it looks like to watch people watching a 3D movie.
Upsets and world records ruled the day on Day 2 of competition at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Here’s a brief recap of Sunday’s action:
July 29, 2012 Congratulations to our last Friday (7/20) winner LeeFran Skelton. She picked up our fifth Coca-Cola Prize Package. She came by this week to pick up his duffel bag, 4 T-Shirts, 4 caps.
We have another cool giveaway coming up in August from NOS Energy Drink with a chance to win more fun gear and prizes!

After yesterday’s Opening Ceremony, the 2012 Summer Olympics had its first full day of competition on Saturday.
At this point, trying to count how many videos include Carly Rae Jepsen‘s viral hit ‘Call Me Maybe’ is akin to counting how many stars there are in the universe. Abercrombie & Fitch models have lip-synced it, the Cookie Monster has spoofed it, and even Katy Perry and her friends released their own homage after Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez did their own.
But while we may not know exactly how many versions are out there, we do know the latest ‘Call Me Maybe’ video to gain fame: ladies and gentlemen, we give you the US Olympic swim team.
July 26, 2012 Congratulations to our last Thursday winner Zachary Daugherty. He picked up our fourth Coca-Cola Prize Package.

Every four years, I get Olympic fever because I'm SO EXCITED for the Summer Olympic Games to start!
Starting on July 27th, I'll be glued to my computer screen (and television screen, when I can) until August 12th, catching up on the latest news and results from the Games.
With an expectation of 205 nations participating in 300 events, the Games of the XXX Olympiad are surely going to be amazing and very entertaining!
July 24, 2012 I have always been amazed at the effect celebrities have on people. They are like family that you never get to see in person. You see them right there on facebook, or on the TV, but never in person
